I recently dined at this location for a business dinner and found all cuts of meat to be quite good. One particular gaucho, Josiah, was especially attentive and made sure we were well taken care of. We'll be back. read more

Went there the ither day for the first time! What an experience, the staff was awesome , service great. I met Vanessa a sales manager there, She was great and especially helpful and provided us with a treat, Brazilian Lemonade. What a refreshing accompaniment to a wonderful lunch. In the end it was pleasent time and will go again. Patrick Singer read more

My husband & I stopped by Fogo for our Christmas dinner. The restaurant was completely packed but since I had make reservations, we just had to wait a couple of minutes for them to set up the table. Customer service was amazing! Irvin, Nico, and Sam provided us with exceptional service. The food was fantastic, especially the Brazilian cheese balls. The chocolate molten cake was delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant for a date night. Thank you Fogo for making our first steakhouse experience a good one! read more

Fogo de Chão - Chocolate Molten Cake - Brazilian Near Me - Rosemont, Illinois

Overrated food, and definitely overpriced. For a place that holds so much to "fine dinning" to let their standards go so far this low is disappointing and somewhat expected. read more

First time here and I'd say I enjoyed myself and so did my boyfriend. It was a date night for us/early sweetest day gift to him. We also went to 13th floor haunted house right after which is 5min away. We starved ourselves until our reservation at 5pm. $49 best of brazil deal highly recommended! We got seated about 2min after we arrived. Caesar was our server and he was really nice! Gave us a crème brûlée cheesecake for our anniversary. The other servers were also kind and very attentive. They catered to us quickly - Loved the service! Tried the cold bar first and honestly just a bunch of different stuff that was just okay. My fav was their pork & beans + their sweet bacon (yummmyyyy). The meats came out SWINGING! Every time I tried talking to my boyfriend another person was showing up with meat! Lol Everything was okay but I got so full sooo quick. Their parmesan pork surprised me positively. Their cheese & honey was my personal favorite! read more

I've been to other Fogo locations but first time at this location. The decor is very similar to the others. Simple elegance is what I would describe. It has a huge salad/market bar in the middle and they have a pretty good wine collection. We got the $65 dinner option which included the salad bar and all you can eat meats. The gauchos come around with the different meats, including pork, chicken, filet, top sirloin, etc. they also include a side of plantains and mash potatoes. All the meats were delicious, but my favorite was the top sirloin. My friend and I left very full! read more

We came here right after the airport to meet another couple for dinner! Service was pretty on top of making sure we had soda refills and everything we needed. I wish we could order just a bunch of the little cheese breads at once! Those are the best. We did the full churrasco experience and enjoyed the garlic steak, lamb, sausage and cheese+honey the best! I think next time I'd stick to the garlic steak and sausage as those were my faves. I didn't try any chicken but our party thought the chimichurri chicken was really good! I did appreciate that they ask if there's anything particular you'd like, if you say no to their offering. There were definitely times where all the offerings were out and times where it slowed down and there wasn't a lot out. Definitely an ebb and flow. My only issue was that it was quite loud and hard to hear staff or even across the table sometimes. Not necessarily the restaurants fault though! The parking is also a little confusing but ended up being fine -- the garage has free parking! read more

Fogo de Chão - Lamb, filet, sausage, salad bar - Brazilian Near Me - Rosemont, Illinois

Been a long time since I've been here. I so wanted my husband and son to have a great experience like I'm used to. It was ok. It was dinner menu all day because of the NY Eve holiday. Ok that's fine. They knew I was celebrating my birthday I got no mention it from anyone even though it was on my reservation. Our waiter was ok I guess but then he disappeared and we had a new waiter. No mention of him needing to split or anything. The new one didn't bother telling us that he was taking over. Just strange. Not a fan of that situation. The good!!! Lamb chops were awesome even if they were a little heavy on the salt. The cucumber mojito like drink. The cheeses!! My son enjoyed the lentil soup with white rice. He really is a cheap date. Thankfully his meal was free because he's 5! I think they also raised prices. Now it's $65 per person. Not sure if it's worth it. Food was pretty good so probably is worth it if you're a big meat eater. My husband isn't so he had the salad bar and enjoyed that but not worth the money for him. They do validate parking so that's cool. I guess it was an ok experience but I doubt that we'll be back for the dinner menu. read more

The food and experience here was absolutely amazing! All the meats were very well seasoned and flavorful. The salad bar was very fresh and well stocked as well. My favorite meats would have to be the filet minon or the sirloin. I love how you can choose how you want it cooked, so I always got to get medium rare. The potato salad and caesar salad were a good pallet cleanser as well. The service was awesome here! We went for a work Christmas party, and it was one of our birthdays as well. The waitress surprised us with a candle and chocolate cake. The ambiance was very clean and nice. Additionally, I love how there's free parking with validation. My only critique is that I wish they came out with the meats quicker, and I wasn't a fan of how salty the chicken and lamb pieces were. The beef pieces were spectacular though! read more

We hosted a corporate event in a dedicated room off of the main restaurant. Nothing there impressed me, service was slow, food so-so. Didn't realize the salad/sides was buffet style, nothing grosses me out like touching food tonges just used by 100 other people. I dont like the concept, food was medicore and service barely ok. read more

Overall: Satisfied with the staff friendliness, cheese bread, meat quality, and buffet bar selection. Slightly dissatisfied with the wait time of certain requests (like an extra straw), the inability to understand which meats are being served to you, and the key lime pie. - Would I return?: Yes, if you like a unique restaurant experience, meat, and a variety, then it's a great place. Talking to your guests may be difficult because of the almost non-stop meat interruptions. But If you are having a large party or want to talk to your guests, I'd suggest going during lunch hour when it's not as loud. My Food (I paid for the unlimited buffet and meats) ---------- * Stand out meats: Rib Eye, Lamb (2 kinds), Pork Belly w/ lime & honey, Filet Mignon *Ordered menu food: Brazilian Lemonade, Key Lime Pie * Flavor & Taste- First off, the free Brazilian cheese breads are one of the best parts. And they will keep bringing them out for you. My favorite meats are the lambs and the filet mignon. The Brazilian lemonade is also great and they will keep refilling. For the buffet bar, I love the wide selection. The rice, roasted veggies, and Greek salads are my favs. Personally, I hated the key lime pie I ordered. The crust was on the mushy side and tasted like mashed black beans. Was also disappointed with the "goat cheese with honey" squares that was served by the staff. I was expecting it to melt in my mouth but it tasted stiff. * Portion Size vs. Price- $65 each for all-you-can-eat during dinner (half off during lunch). For quality meats and a wide selection, I think it's worth it. The Place -------------- * Atmosphere- Large seating area that opens up to more space. Interior design is on the fancier side. People either dress up to attend, or they are very casually dressed. * Service- Table waiters are extremely friendly and over the top helpful. Though, I asked for a drink straw and waited at least 5 minutes while also asking another staff member. My friend also requested a specific meat and needed to ask the wait staff multiple times before actually getting it to the table. You will also always have a staff member ask to clear off plates from your table many times throughout your meal. The meat staff do not speak clearly or loudly when walking up to your table, so I needed to ask multiple times which meat they are serving, and sometimes I still did not understand. Not a big deal though. * Crowd Levels- Monday, 6pm, busy * Cleanliness- Clean, but there are sometimes tiny flies in the air. * Location- In a very nice Rosemont restaurant park, separate from the other restaurants. * Parking- Free parking garage (it's a confusing garage and you will need to walk 1/4 mile to the restaurant and validate your ticket) or $15 restaurant valet read more

Food: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Came here on Saturday 3/22/25. Was visiting from California to see my son in the Navy. The service was exceptional! My Customer Service Representative was Nick. He made sure that my experience there with my family was pleasant and memorable. He took care of all of our needs and requests, was very personable, and very knowledgeable about all of the different menu items, and cuts of meat. All of the food was great. We came during brunch, and the waffles were delightful. Not heavy, very light, had a nice crisp around the edges and a nice flavor. Thank you, Nick for a pleasant dining experience thank you to the rest of the staff. Hope to see you next time we're visiting. read more

Fogo de Chão - Brazilian Near Me - Rosemont, Illinois

Honestly not very impressed with my visit to Fogo de Chao. I remember visiting one many years back and absolutely loving it. This visit was not that. Our server and all those staff members we interacted with were all super nice and friendly. We noticed however that we went extremely long periods of time without any food and just sitting waiting for servers to come around. By the time we were done eating we figured out that several items on the menu never came by us at all so we didn't get to try too many of the options. For the high price we paid we certainly expected more. Don't think we will be returning again. read more

Spotty service...had to chase down a glass of wine . It' hasn't changed over the years-- but we have--and now the meat seems very salty

Amazing company dinner here. The amazing and delicious fire roasted cuts of meat was all top notch quality. Love the filet mignon, lamb chops, bacon wrapped steaks, picanha, top sirloin and the pork belly was my favorites of the night. The Market Table was amazing with so many options for roasted veggies, salads and more. The service staff was wonderful and able to give attentive service to our big group. Wine glasses was always full, water glasses was filled. My negative feedback was the spacing of the BBQ meats was a bit rushed. I wished it was spaced out more to truly enjoyed the BBQ. The atmosphere was relaxing. And the private room felt like we were having a private dinner. read more

Very disappointed. Placed against the wall where we got poor service. Bill was over $500 and was our worst experience there. Asked for steak sauce twice, never got it. Place has gone downhill. read more

We wanted to like this place, because it was the first time for most of us. Unfortunately, we had a bad experience and had to spend almost $700 for sub standard food and service. All of the meats we had were extremely salty and the cuts were mostly either dry or bloody. I think the meats they use is low quality and they had to cook them rare, so that they don't get tough and chewy. We were celebrating a birthday, so decided to splurge a little and go here. I wish we read the reviews and chose another restaurant. They may have served a lot of meat, but they did not taste good - salty, dry or bloody! The white table cloth got so disgusting looking because of the bloody meats they cut. We all had the indulgent churrasco which included the market buffet which had salads, soup, cheese, smoked salmon, etc. The meat was definitely NOT WORTH IT! The only thing I enjoyed was the cheese and honey. We also felt rushed here. The server Alyssa talked so fast and was moving around like a bee constantly asking if we needed anything else and always clearing our plates. When she gave the bill, she hovered around our table waiting for us to pay. We were only there for not even an hour. Definitely not a good experience, since we were charged an exorbitant amount for substandard food and rushed service. Will NOT go here again! read more

Little disappointed in the service, had a reservation at 2:30pm Saturday. Several hottess and waiters came over and asked if we needed anything, but we had to ask Several times or someone would bring it and place it randomly on table. They kinda overwhelmed us at once with the meats so by the time we ate it, it was cold. Not worth the price. read more

We stopped by after a Cubs game. Busy but well organized. We enjoyed all the salad bar options- fruit, veggies, meats and cheeses plus salads. We love our steak rare and were not disappointed. Many great meat options were offered. We were disappointed in the cheese bread- it wasn't as we remembered it. Tiny and more crunchy than soft. But we enjoyed our mojitos (regular and skinny) and dessert (mango and Ice cream). Not hard for 2 adults to rack up a $250 bill with tip. Service was efficient and friendly. Tables were filled and pretty close together- a bit of an adventure to go back and forth to the salad bar. read more

We visited this restaurant on December 30, 2024 to celebrate my sons birthday and we brought along his girlfriend who was visiting for the first time. This facility was so beautifully decorated just inside the first doors and inside the second doors for the holidays 2024. Upon entering the second doors there is a tree to the left and just in front of that is the hostess station. To the left of the hostess station is the bar and in front of the bar is an area for seating and down the hall is the washroom (which I did not use). Straight ahead is the salad bar and to the right inside the restaurant is the seating area. We chose the whole experience for the four of us that included the salad bar and the meats. The salad bar at this location is by far my favorite of anywhere especially the fresh mozzarella and tomatoes and the fresh bread. There is a complentary cheese muffin that is very tasteful. There was also a cheese that was served with honey, not sure what it is called and cannot find it on the menu. We all enjoyed many types of meat, although I asked for the sausage it never came around sadly. The meat we did have was delicious! The team there are kind and helpful. They are fast as well between cleaning the plates to topping off the water and and coming around with the meat. Our server Johnathon was super kind and helpful. Was even kind enough to take a photo of us. Manager Nathaniel A is attentive to his guests needs and is good at what he does. It's clear your team runs well under your management. Kudos to you! read more

We started off a little bit roughly, we went on Mothers Day and we expected to pay the Brunch menu price but we were told that Holidays are charged the dinner price. I spoke to the manager and he graciously gave us the normal brunch price that was very nice of him. It was our first time at FOGO at we were pleasantly surprised at the quality and amount of the food. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone it was a delicious change of pace from the normal restaurant fair. Don't miss the roasted pineapple it was great. read more

My actual rating is 3.5. If you are a meat lover, true carnivorous this is your place. Excellent place for special celebrations. The service is really good, everyone is very attentive, and your plate, if you wish, is never empty. The salad bar, for me is the best part. A cornucopia of flavors, colors, textures, and aromas from a variety of veggies, fruits, salads, and charcuterie meats and cheeses. Their mixologists are knowledgeable serving a variety of cocktails, I enjoyed a good Negroni. The space is nice, specially during Christmas season. The price is reasonable as one can choose very good cuts of beef, lamb, and other meats and return to the salad bar unlimited times read more

My family is visiting from California and have been to several Fogo de Chão locations, but the service at the Rosemont location was by FAR the best we've ever experienced. Our server, Neftali, was AMAZING and very attentive. He made us feel so welcome throughout the entire meal. The food was great, but Neftali's outstanding service is what really made our visit memorable. Our glasses were always full and he made sure we had a chance to try everything. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be coming back our next visit. read more

I used to like this place but the server was horrible .. we came in around 5 on a Tuesday . It was not busy .. our waitress Vanessa barely checked on us . And was too busy talking to the other staff . Luckily other staff members noticed we needed water and more bread and yucca. Not coming back.. update .. even though they responded below . I emailed and have not heard anything back from Guest relations .. This is email Thank you for your response and for taking the time to follow up on my review. To provide more context about our visit: we dined at Fogo de Chão yesterday to celebrate a birthday. While our waitress, Vanessa, was kind, she was not attentive throughout the evening. One of the first things we noticed was that she didn't ask if we were celebrating a special occasion--a detail that's typically part of the Fogo experience and helps make guests feel valued. From the start, the experience felt rushed even though it was not busy . The meat servers moved quickly through the dining area and often bypassed our table, even though our cards were green. We had to make extra effort to get their attention. Our waters barely got refilled--I can count only one additional time during the entire meal. We also had to flag down another staff member just to request more yucca fries and bread--items we always enjoy during our visits. At one point, we even had to ask the woman refilling water for a dessert menu, as our waitress had barely checked on us after we initially received help from the other staff. When we finally ordered dessert, I had to ask if the birthday dessert special was still offered, as I believed it was typically complimentary for the guest of honor. Unfortunately, we were charged for it, and no mention was made of any birthday recognition. We also noticed our server in conversation with another staff member rather than attending to her tables, despite the restaurant not being busy. Overall, this visit fell short of the attentive and seamless service we've come to expect from Fogo de Chão, and it was especially disappointing given that it was a special occasion. I appreciate your willingness to address this and would be open to further discussing our experience. Please let me know the next steps. Best regards read more

Came here to celebrate my nephew graduation. His been craving for some good meal. The selection for the buffet is mid compare to other Fogo De Chao we been to.

We came here to Rosemont for an anniversary celebration. We chose Fogo for our dinner. We were not pleased with our experience. First, our waiter Felix was forgetful as he did not bring our drinks and at the end our bill. He also brought us still water $8 a bottle when what we wanted was tap water. My partner ordered the lobster tail and it arrived cold and was such a small size it was four bites. It was damn close to inedible. To add insult to injury, they paraded two more lobster tails by us, stopping at our table each time to ask if we had ordered them and those looked like regular sized lobster tails! Because we were honest, we clearly lost out. Also, the garlic steak was hard and I left it on the plate. They did not do anything to acknowledge our anniversary except for the host when we walked in. Not the anniversary dinner we were hoping for. read more

This is my second time going to a Brazilian style restaurant so I had high hopes as I enjoyed my first experience and this place is considered to be fancier. The ambiance was fancier and the location is pleasant. However, I am giving it a low rating as the food was terrible. To start off, the salad/market bar did not have much to offer. There were a few different salads and some sides but for the price you pay, the selection could be better. There were some sides that should be warm instead of chilled like the grilled broccoli and mushrooms. The cold cut meats looked spoiled - even one customer called it out while I was in line. The salads were one of the better tasting items but you can find a good salad anywhere. Then came the entree which was the sea bass. It was honestly one of the worst fish I've ever had in my life. It was so oily and flavorless. The asparagus was cold - cooked vegetables being served cold seems to be the theme here. Overall, I was extremely disappointed by the meal. read more

It was ok...needs better side. Like a baked potato. The Lamb chops were really good. The lobster macaroni and cheese was horrible.

Terrible experience. Food was old, not seasoned, and difficult to come by. Even sides like the bread were stale and have been obviously sitting on the side for an hour. The only decent thing was the salad bar. The selection is decreased drastically while the price continues to go up. Worst of the Brazilian steakhouses I've been to. Never again. read more

Definotely a place for special occasions. The place can get super busy so a reservation is required. Our server was amazing. He was so patient and attentive. I forgot to get his name. Food is always good. My favorite is still the Prime Rib. It doesnt come out often so you have to specifically ask for it. Also Shrimp Cocktails and Drinks that are going around are NOT FREE. I think a lot of people assume it is. Place is a bit on the classy side. So you can dress up as you please. They also have a Market Table which is like a Salad Bar that is part of the buffet experience. Happy Eating! read more

The menu online does NOT reflect accurate pricing. My friend and I decided to treat ourselves to a fancy dinner. The online menu shows a price of $63.50 for the full experience, however in person the price has raised to $68. When I wrote my last review, the price was $60. The pricing is slowly becoming less affordable. My friend and I opted to do the market table after seeing how extensive it was. We told our waiter, and after that we received much worse service. I was thrilled with just doing the market table. It had tons of options from deli meats, cheeses, bacon, beans, rice, and tons of fancy salads. I was not even missing the meats! The overall experience felt a bit scammy as people kept coming by with trays of shrimp, drinks, and fried cheeses. These were not included in the experience price and were additional fees, but that was not being communicated. The small bowl of shrimp was close to $30 extra! Super fun for a special occasion but please be aware of these marketing tactics! read more
